Terminal apparatus and communication method
Communication is efficiently performed even when the communication is performed in a high carrier frequency. A terminal apparatus includes: a reception unit configured to receive assistance information from a primary cell and a plurality of synchronization signals from a secondary cell and to perform synchronization on the basis of the assistance information and the plurality of synchronization signals; and a transmission unit configured to transmit measurement information regarding at least one of the plurality of synchronization signals. The assistance information includes respective pieces of information regarding the plurality of synchronization signals. The assistance information includes an ID of each of the plurality of synchronization signals, and the terminal apparatus transmits the ID as the measurement information regarding the synchronization signal.
